Learn about the companion animal, wildlife and education services PAWS provides to the public. You can also access our comprehensive online Resource Library containing information on a wide range of animal-related topics.
Each year, PAWS reunites hundreds of lost dogs and cats with their guardians. PAWS is authorized to take in strays from Edmonds, Kenmore, Lake Forest Park, Mountlake Terrace, Mukilteo, Shoreline and Woodinville in Washington State.
PAWS believes in lifelong commitments to companion animals but we understand there may be reasons why a guardian wishes to re-home their dog or cat.
Don’t risk losing your precious companion. Purchase a personalized ID tag at PAWS Companion Animal Shelter in Lynnwood for $5. We also sell some local city pet licenses at our adoption centers.
We are working to help end the suffering of unwanted and homeless animals in our community by preventing unplanned litters. PAWS offers low-cost spay or neuter surgeries to pets of qualified low-income individuals. We are now offering spay/neuter surgeries for dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens of income-qualified families.
PAWS Wildlife Center is a full-service rehabilitation facility and hospital devoted exclusively to wildlife species. We are fully equipped to treat minor and major injuries and disease, perform specialized surgeries and do diagnostic testing, including X-ray and ultrasound procedures.
As wild animals attempt to survive and thrive in an increasingly human-dominated landscape, the possibilities for conflict with humans are endless. PAWS has resources to help you learn about the root causes of human/wildlife conflicts and how to avoid them.
Through projects and programs at PAWS, kids can help make a difference in animals’ lives and learn what it means to be a champion for animals.
Scouts can earn badges and patches at PAWS while learning about the ways that everyone can make a difference in the lives of animals.
From our signature 4th grade Kids Who Care program to classroom projects, PAWS provides opportunities for school children to connect to and better understand animals.
